"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Timothy McVeigh and the Unibomber Ted K. Also struggled with women.
The only mass murderer (I include serial killers in this category) who I can recall that was any kind of Chaddish was Ted Bundy.

EDIT: Here's a guy that was Chaddish enough to go on the Dating Game! It seems that the date he got from that found him creepy, and that might have pushed him over the edge.
A fellow "bachelor" contestant later described Alcala as a "very strange guy" with "bizarre opinions".[10] Alcala won the competition, and a date with "bachelorette" Cheryl Bradshaw, who subsequently refused to go out with him because she found him "creepy".[6][10] Criminal profiler Pat Brown, noting that Alcala killed at least three women after his Dating Game appearance, speculated that this rejection might have been an exacerbating factor. "One wonders what that did in his mind", Brown said. "That is something he would not take too well. [Serial killers] don't understand the rejection. They think that something is wrong with that girl: 'She played me. She played hard to get.'"[10]

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

What's with the gunshots Before the bomb went off? And cops already there? and the explosion not coming from the RV but probably 30-40 feet from it.

He may have done contract work for at&t previously. Blowing up this one location did expose the vulnerability of their network. Maybe that was his only point.

Right. It could even be a test run for someone else he knew to do the same or worse. According to some info I gathered off of some YT vids, it was a lot more than just mobile phones and internet that went down in TN. One guy an hour outside of the city said that all ATM's in his area were down, gas stations were cash only, grocery stores and convenient stores were also solely reliant on cash transactions. You can see how a lot of people were likely caught off guard and are used to swiping a credit card everywhere, every time with no cash on hand. Another guy said that service was down in 7 states. The service technicians aren't as quick to respond during the holidays, likely enjoying drinks at home like me, extending the grid down period. All because of one fkn hit.
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
